4 What is covered? Servicing and maintenanceNormal production operations where:Employees by-pass guard(s)Employees place any part of their body in a hazardous areaWhen you are training it is important to cover the relationship between Subpart O-Machine Guarding and Lockout Tagout!!

5 What is not covered? Construction, agriculture, and maritimeNormal production operations (subpart O)Cord-and-plug under the control of employee (written procedure still required)Exposure to electrical conductors (subpart S and electrical safety-related work practices)

8 Lockout vs. Tagout If capable of being locked out:Prefer lockoutTags allowed, if employer can demonstrate FULL EMPLOYEE PROTECTIONMachine ModificationsIf you alter a machine you must make the machine capable of accepting a lock.

9 Full employee protection?Tags attached at the same location as locksFull compliance with all tagout provisions in 29 CFRAdditional means when necessary (e.g. removal of a valve handle)

15 Documentation exceptions:Machine has no potential for stored energyMachine has a single energy sourceIsolation of that source will completely de-energizeMachine is isolated and locked out during maintenance

16 Documentation exceptions (cont.)A single lockout device will achieve locked-out conditionLockout device under exclusive control of employeeMaintenance does not create hazard to othersNo previous accidents involving unexpected energization on this equipment

17 Energy control procedureNotification of employeesPreparation for shutdownMachine or equipment shutdownMachine or equipment isolationLockout/tagout device applicationStored energyVerification of isolationRelease from lockout/tagout

23 Line breaking:Means the intentional opening of a pipe, line, or duct that is or has been carrying flammable, corrosive, or toxic material, an inert gas, or any fluid at a volume, pressure, or temperature capable of causing injury

24 Line blanking or blinding:Means the absolute closure of a pipe, line, or duct by fastening of a solid plate that completely covers the bore and that is capable of withstanding the maximum pressure of the pipe, line, or duct with no leakage beyond the plate.

25 Double block and bleed:Means the closure of a line, duct, or pipe by closing and locking or tagging two in-line valves and by opening and locking or tagging a drain or vent valve in the line between the two closed valves.

26 Lockout procedure – Step 5LOCKOUT OR TAGOUT DEVICE APPLICATIONAffixed by authorized employee holding energy isolating device in the safe or off position

30 Lockout procedure – Step 7VERIFICATION OF ISOLATIONPrior to servicing or maintenance, authorized employee must verify machine has been de-energized

31 Lockout procedure – Step 8RELEASE FROM LOCKOUT OR TAGOUTInspect work area to ensure removal of non-essentialsEmployees safely positioned and notifiedLockout/tagout removal (by employee who applied)

32 Lock/tag removal if authorized employee is not available?Verify that authorized employee is not at facilityMake reasonable efforts to inform him or herEnsure that he/she knows of removal upon re-enteringMUST INCLUDE THIS PROCEDURE IN WRITTEN PROGRAM

44 Periodic Inspection Performed at least annuallyLockout – include review with authorized employeesTagout – include review with authorized and affected employeesCertification record kept:Identify machine or equipmentDate of inspectionEmployees performing and included in inspection

45 Training and re-trainingAuthorized employeesRecognition of hazardous energyType and magnitude of hazardous energyMethods of isolating energyHow to verify isolationAffected – Purpose and use of procedureOther – Procedure and Prohibition from tamperingTagout provisions

46 Re-training is required when:Change in job assignmentChange in machine or processChange in lockout/tagout procedureInadequacies revealed in periodic review

47 Training certificationCertify that the training has been conducted and kept up to date:Employee namesDate(s) of training

49 Testing or positioning machinesClear the machine of tools and materialsRemove employees from the areaRemove lockout/tagout devicesEnergize and proceed with testing/positioningDe-energize and re-apply energy control measures

50 Group lockout Personal lock or tag (usually)Lockbox or master tag system with principal authorized employee“Shall utilize a procedure which affords a level of protection equivalent to that provided by the implementation of a personal lockout or tagout device”

51 Group LockoutEach exposed employee must be provided the same level of protection…Each person must be protected by their own lock!

54 Minor Servicing ExemptionActivities which are routine, repetitive, and integral to the use of the equipment for production are not covered by this standard if alternative measures provide effective protection.Activity must be conducted during normal production operationsActivity must be routine (regular course of procedure in accordance with established practices), repetitive (regularly repeated as part of production), and integral (essential to the production process).
